Two thoughts. Fire the ones that refuse to comply. The unemployment rate is 15% right now. Second you have a law enforcement agency that is separate from the one with the problem enforce the rules. That could be a state police agency that polices the local police or a special investigative part of the government that ensures compliance.

This already is a thing in places (internal affairs) and it never goes well or efficiently. Quis custodiet ipsos custodes and all. Reducing their power/influence is the only sure bet.

You can't just hatch experienced law enforcement officers in a week (or a year). And putting inexperienced officers in early can make things far worse, from a police brutality perspective.

Beyond that, though, painting an entire profession as monsters is simply wrong.

Be careful what you wish for--it appears that an upswing in resignations is happening now.

"painting an entire profession as monsters is simply wrong."

Asking people to act to professional standards and holding them to those standards isn't painting them as monsters nor does it seem unreasonable.

No, it's not. But there is a lot of such painting going on, and you can't solve one evil by committing a second.
